@ykhi JSX is a pain in the back but people have their routines I guess. I see it as Solid being the better React and Svelte being the better Vue as far as DevX, workflow and feeling goes.

@demonicious_ there is no such thing as a "react dev", they are web developers.

@kevinhaube8448 To be fair you need more than performances when it comes to building a production ready app. You need a solid support with constant updates, good fundings, a mature ecosystem, a strong community/pool of devs, etc...

@snake3837 Portals are only a thing because of virtual dom. You don't need portals in Svelte because there is no virtual dom. If you somehow can't figure out a way to solve your problems without portals because your brain is too fucking small remember that Svelte, unlike Vue, allows multiple root elements in your template. Meaning your main App.svelte component could be: <div class="wrapper"><MyComponentTree /></div> <div class="portals">  {# each notifications as notification} <MyNotificationComponent variant={notification.type} heading={notification.label} {... notification} on:dismiss={notificationDismissFired}> {notification.content} </MyNotificationComponent> {/each} </div>

@capybara5494 "Hello I'm a react dev, an electron dev and a graphql dev" - "Hello I'm a web developer and I have experience using react, electron and graphql in the past" You sound like one of those college graduates who gives themselves fancy titles.

@kevinhaube8448 The pun wasn't intended 😆 Well I mean if solid really does solve react user's struggle they will switch over. It's a matter of time I guess until the community becomes strong enough to be a production ready framework.

@solid_js I tried solid since the last reply and I'm currently switching over an unfinished codebase for a personal project. Gotta say I really like the tutorial styled documentation you guys have.

@capybara5494 I wasn't intending to hurt your feeling, just pointing out it's a silly thing to say. For what it's worth I would call someone who use JS outside the scope of web a "JavaScript dev" but you can call yourself whatever you like at the end of the day. If it can boost your ego or make you feel special go for it.

@demonicious_ I understood what you meant no worries. At the end of the day it's the argument of abstraction, there will always be pros and cons.
